I am Going Dubai for a Month
 

Hi Guys
i am going to dubai for a month, will fly on 7th april :-)
just wanted to get some info if anyone been there?

any information would be highly appreacited.


one fact Dubai is fucking expensive, nothing cheap there

Everything I like to do is illegal. I hear there are places for all of thst though.

Have fun with those Muslims.

don't forget your weed, thank me later.

Jesus why

Do one of the many food and spice tours! get out in the desert hundreds of tours to choose from, theres a hop on hop off bus tours that give you a good look at the city, if only to spot where you want to go back to.

Night club wise..

Warm up and dinner at Barefoot Lounge at Marine Beach!

Three names for you Trilogy, Club 360 and Nasimi Beach, all great clubs, hot chicks galore! get there early! Theres lots of nice to shity English style pubs and bars around as well.

Main tip I would give is if your going out.. your going out meaning a taxi from your hotel to your destination and the same on the way home, bar hopping and stuff is risky if you have been drinking, to and from the hotel is fine..

Its an amazing city of diverse culture that will blow your mind, enjoy your stay, beware of Englishmen selling condos :)

you know you will get it cheaper and of better quality there and most likely be offered it more frequently than at home. ;) just buy joints not an OZ to take around with you.

leave porn & weed at home

when you're there, check GlobalVillage (once i made a soundtrack for a projection mapping presentation there)

Dubai looks so sterile ... or you are going to the outskirts??

I have never even thought of going there, nor have I ever even typed the word 'Dubai' before in my life, yet after just reading this thread, and not even interacting with it... I go back to facebook and see this advert...

THEY ARE WATCHING US!!!!

Dubai isn't as expensive as you would imagine, certainly day to day. If you want to go and rent a boat, jet ski or whatever, sure it's going to cost you a lot. I found the best food was mostly on the beach, the little local restaurants offering middle eastern cuisine you could get a 3 course meal for two for under $30. The good thing about Dubai is only certain places serve alcohol, you are not tempted to rack up an extra $40-50 in beers with lunch like I usually do on a vacation.

The metro line is amazing and cheap, don't Uber or get Taxis unless you are in a rush. I took a taxi from Dubai to Abu Dhabi, it cost me $55 and Abu Dhabi is cheaper than Dubai and pretty cool to see, I recommend doing that if you have a whole month. You can also take a day trip to Oman for a reasonable price, I think about $120 per person and it includes meals.

If you go drinking then you're gonna spend big but hanging out on the beach, eating local cuisine and enjoying your hotel pool is not going to cost you a lot. Don't take the metro home after drinking, someone will call the Police for public intoxication, get a taxi from the venue, they're all approved and understand the person will have been drinking and you won't have any problems.

I loved Dubai, I am planning on going back next year with my wife and son who will be 1 year old, such a cool place.

Be careful, Facebook spamming is punishable by death in Dubai.

bring weed for prince.

Been several times.Nice and wonderful city.Most porn sites are blocked.Alcohol only in hotel or in special stores.And bit warm in july-august )))

I'm going in November so tell us what your thoughts are

A friend of mine was very unlucky there. She & her mom got into the cab, "Dubai airport please" and the cab driver started to do a scenic route around Dubai, definitely not going in the desired direction. He was told it's not good, he ignored. he was yelled at (they were somewhat late), then he stopped at the original hotel they took off from saying "$50". at the same exact location where he picked them up! My friend protested of course, and this dickhead started threatening with calling the police. And the driver even tried to hit on her after all this :D When they finally got to the airport, they paid about half of the ridiculous $100+ price the driver asked for (reasonable price would have been just a fraction of it, even by Dubai taxi standards) and they stormed off, leaving this screaming hyena behind.

yeah, avoid taxis there.

^^^ :1orglaugh

good luck :)

Haven't been there but looks like a fun place for sure... one day...

Yeah taxi to the airport is about $10-15. I took a taxi from Abu Dhabi to Dubai airport, about 80 min drive and it was $50 lol.

Was in Dubai last year for 2 days. And that was plenty enough. FYI, Abu Dhabi is much cheaper than Dubai.

Abu Dhabi is sun and sand ))) nothing interesting exept Ferrari Park and Yas Waterworld.Dubai is prettier )))

I've noticed that with things i watch on tv (Not internet connected) or things i speak about... scary really

Dubai is a great city, but it's like others ie., Paris, London etc. After the 5th day you've seen enough. The best secret about Dubai is the "old" city. It's a huge mix of people from India-Morocco. If you're a "foodie" this place in unbelievably cheap and good. Like really good, especially the seafood.

same here i talk out loud about things then they are magically on google even if i didnt look them up on google. the NSA is watching listening etc at all times we are not alone anymore!
